BGP: Configuring Prefix Filters
4.Shut down the neighbor, and then bring it up again.
5.Check that the IP route table now contains one of the routes learnt from that neighbor, but not the other.
Codes: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, B - BGP O - OSPF, IA - OSPF inter area
N1 - OSPF NSSA external type 1, N2 - OSPF NSSA external type 2 E1 - OSPF external type 1, E2 - OSPF external type 2
* - candidate default
B45.0.0.0/8 [20/0] via 45.45.45.46, vlan1, 00:00:06
C45.45.45.0/24 is directly connected, vlan1
C 64.0.0.0/4 is directly connected, vlan64
Filter out a range of different prefix lengths
This example filters out routes to 45.0.0.0 with prefix lengths in the range
1. Remove the existing prefix list entry.
awplus(config)# no ip
2.Add the following prefix list entries.
awplus(config)# ip
3. Set that prefix list as the prefix list filter for neighbor 45.45.45.46
awplus(config)# router bgp 34567
awplus(config)# neighbor 45.45.45.46
4.Shut down the neighbor, and then bring it up again.
